Banana Chocolate Chip Cookies #FillTheCookieJar

Kids LOVE cookies! And so do we adults, of course. With back-to-school (or work) lunches soon making an appearance, adding a special little treat now and again to a healthy lunch box is a lovely surprise. Today I’m sharing our banana chocolate chip recipe with you. These little bites are light and fluffy and have been described as little muffin cookies! I’m pleased to have them as my first addition to a monthly group of Fill The Cookie Jar recipes. This month’s theme is Back to School!

Banana Chocolate Chip Cookie Ingredients

2¼ C Flour

2 tsp Baking Powder

½ tsp Salt

¼ tsp Baking Soda

1 C Margarine

2 Eggs

1 C Sugar

1 tsp Vanilla

1 C Chocolate chips

1 C Mashed ripe banana

How to Make Banana Chocolate Chip Cookies

1) Mix the first 4 ingredients together.

2) Mix the next 4 ingredients together.

3) Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and blend well.

4) Stir in the chocolate chips and banana.

5) Drop the cookie dough onto greased cookie sheets.

6) Bake at 400C for 12-15 minutes.

Now that your family have tried these moist and delicious banana chocolate chip cookies they’ll be asking for them over and over again! They’re one of our top-requested treats. Good thing they are easy to whip up and they even make use of that bruised and over-ripe banana that’s been travelling back and forth in the lunch box all week!

Your sous chef is adorable!

I have made banana chocolate chip muffins, but never cookies. And I have an overripe banana on the counter… hmm…

Bananas were made for chocolate, weren’t they? I have a few of these cookies tucked away in the freezer for when company comes unexpectedly…or maybe for a homeschooling mother-parent conference 😉
